[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got a 1350 on the SAT in 1989, which was good enough to get me into Williams. Any idea what a 1350 is worth now? [/quote] Well, the College Board "normalized" the SAT circa 1995/96. So you can add about 70-80 points to your score, most of it to your Verbal score. So you'd likely have ~1420/1430 nowadays with just that adjustment. And just think, back in 1980's we took it once maybe twice and did no prep work at all. Getting above 1450/1480 was a Top score back then. None of this everyone has over 1540[/quote] 1400s in the late 80s (on a very different SAT than the one in the past 15-20 years) was a very, very selective score back then. It was a different test.
